Dr. Jason Wersland is the Founder and Chief Wellness Officer of Therabody, formerly known as Theragun, a leading global tech wellness company rooted in science and technology, based in Los Angeles, California.
Dr. Jason’s Theragun story began in 2007 when he experienced a debilitating injury in a motorcycle accident. Necessity became the mother of invention, and he created something to help him deal with his pain. And that’s how Theragun was born. Dr. Jason dedicated eight years to developing five different prototypes, devoted to finding a solution that increases range of motion and decreases pain.
In 2016, Theragun introduced the G1, its first product. In 2017, Theragun introduced the G2PRO and became the industry leader in percussive therapy. Dr. Jason's quest for constant innovation drove to the release of the G3PRO in January 2019, and most recently its 4th generation percussive massage therapy devices, the Theragun PRO, Elite, Prime, and mini launched in May 2020. Theragun is now trusted by more than 250 professional sports teams worldwide, physical therapists, trainers, chiropractors, celebrities, athletes, and everyday people in over 60 countries.
Most recently, Theragun rebranded to Therabody continuing its mission to provide natural wellness product solutions and in July 2020 launched its own U.S. grown CBD line, TheraOne -- becoming the first brand to ever garner the USDA Certified Organic seal across its entire product line. As a chiropractor, Dr. Jason’s life’s work has always been about helping people feel their best, so they can live the life they were meant to live. Dr. Jason is passionate about wellness and is dedicated to constantly evolving science, research, and education around the subject and a huge part of that is learning from other’s experiences.
In May 2020, the company rebranded from Theragun to Therabody and introduced a brand new, sleek line of Theraguns (including a Mini!) as well as announced TheraOne, a line of CBD solutions.
